Biblical Literacy Made Easy: A Practical Guide For Catechists,
Teachers, And Youth Ministers by Brian Singer-Towns, ©2008 St. Mary's
Press. This is a great little gem of a resource, an excellent gift for
the beginning of the school year. It provides easy-to-understand
foundational background for the formation leader. It is filled with
information to help young people become knowledgeable and comfortable
using the Bible, seeing the big picture of the biblical story of
salvation history, and interpreting Bible books and passages in their
proper contexts. To make it completely wonderful, it includes many
catechetical strategies and activity ideas throughout the book. http://www.smp.org/ItemDetail.cfm?ItemNum=3833

short. Very short. If you would like to "unsubscribe", simply reply to
this eLetter and let me know. It will only hurt my feelings slightly!
